i have back issues, one question i have is how do you stop the right shoulder from flying out at the start of the downswing causing an over the top move, this is worse as the clubs get longer for me particularly with driver, my understanding of the easiest swing move is all rotational and the whole body moving as one in harmony, but i always seem to swing across the ball and get a glancing blow leading to a loss of distance, thanks the videos are great and i have subscribed dan

This swing is pain free. When you feel like you’re swinging with effort,you’re not doing it right. I think it was Sam Snead said that you should be able to whistle normally while you swing. Try it!

Question about the new book - does it get into the specifics of instruction on the swing mechanics or more focused on the philosophy behind the swing? I need a driving range companion and videos are hard to watch at the range:)

i’m playing here this weekend, just watching some videos to see what the facilities are like. Looks GREAT!

For all of you senior golfers, what Phillip is teaching is the key to playing golf in a way that will allow you to continue playing for years to come. The secret is swinging in a relaxed manner. Here in Arizona, golfing in very warm conditions can feel like the Batan death march if you are swinging the club with a strangle hold on the grip, out of balance, and too much tension in your arms and shoulders. Instead of finishing a round feeling tired, the Easiest Swing method has you walking off of the 18th green still feeling like you could easily play another 9 holes. I am finding much more enjoyment in my game today than I ever had prior to finding the Easiest Swing. I score better and I feel better. I may not look like the young bucks with a pro style swing, but I don’t look like the guys that swing out of their shoes and look like they are chopping wood. If you are a senior, try it. I think you will like it a lot.

🎉Gentlemen, all of the exercises that encompass this golf swing have benefits well beyond the swing. The swinging leg drill and the Danse, have made improvements to my overall mobility and balance. As this swing becomes more and more my natural swing my game is leaving me more refreshed.

Nobody and i mean NO ONE makes the golf swing look so easy...and it is if you do it Brian's way

Do you have any videos on fixing fat shots?

Had a long conversation with Brian about one length irons and he was strongly considering incorporating this into the easiest swing. I finally bought an immaculate set very cheap off a well known auction site. Had 9 holes with them last night and then took them out in one of our club major competitions where I placed third. These have got to be great for the easiest swing , same ball position and no bending over, what do you think? As Brian said, always breaking rules.

Brilliant swing Phil

Same principle with irons and hybrids off ?

Hi Phil, what a brilliant swing you have. Great to watch.

I’m in the middle of rehab with a wrist injury, and I’m doing the La Danse du Golf all around the house. Thanks Philip and rest in peace Brian ❤

Another great video Phil for we, senior golfers! I like the idea of turning out the right toe a bit and even pulling back the right leg somewhat. The Le' Dance move that you recommended using for weight transfer is excellent! Glad I found your book and your channel! Well Done Sir!

Another excellent explanation of how to play golf without pressure❤

We hope our senior golfers find these simple concepts helpful in achieving a better turn in their golf swing, ultimately making the game a bit easier! Remember to check out easiestswing.com to learn more about Easiest Swing.

I have just dicovered your site, I have watched many of your videos over the last few days. I have been playing for many years and always found swinging slower hits it better. I am playing in a Seniors Aniversary medal next week, which I won last year, and I am going to try and put into practice your method and see how I get on, just for information, my HI is 13.9 and I have not ben playing well for the past few months, I will let you know how I get on, thanks in advance for your information.

Moe Norman and Ben Hogan both feet grounded back and through impact.

I’m new to your channel but watched this as a senior golfer and started to raise my left heel. Awesome! Felt so much easier to swing not hit and drove the ball really well today the first time of doing this. It also improved my tempo with my irons so a result all round. Thank you so much for this and I look forward to watching more of your channel. Neil

Thanks so much for the video. Tension has always been an issue for me and this video really helped. I have a question. On the downswing, is your feeling more body driven or arms driven? In other words is the feeling when swinging down, the body leading the arms or vice versa?

I allow myself to relax and get quite a reasonable distance say 190 carry which is probably average for my age 67 but can’t get any further with a relaxed swing .what am I missing ? I can get 145 to 165 wy😮ith a six iron but feel I should get more carry with the driver ? Any ideas please

❤

I have no tension in my golf swing. I lost 20 yards with my driver (180 down to 160) since last year. Working on getting back the yardage (hopefully more than a 20 yard gain) before I actually play again. Home on the range.

This Feb I transitioned from Graves Golf Single Plane Swing to the Easiest Swing. It made sense about less tension and rotating for my 73 yr old body. It has been an unmitigated disaster. My drives are 20 to 30 yds less and I slice all over the course and hit pop ups 30 yds off the tee. My long irons are more topped than solidly hit. And the strongest of my game had been chipping and now I either chunk or skull the shot 80% of the time. All of the comments on the Videos praise their results. Are these comments for real or they written by friends and Bots? I’m going to try and incorporate a hybrid with the best parts of less tension with the ball striking of Single Plane.

I am 76 years old and I'm wondering if yourecommend that I use soft golf balls to improve my distance.

I agree with you that tension really hurts your swing. I am having a problem that right after I hit the golf ball, my arms stop moving and I never reach my full forward swing.

Frictionless

Hi Philip, Yes interference free is OK but some action towards the target to collect the ball through the turf and send it to the target is required. Depending on the type of interaction with the turf tone in the wrists changes.

So Simple. Thanks

Great video. It is amazing how easy the swing can be if you just let it happen. I am sorry, but your swing trainer is way overpriced. I will take your tips to heart, and use my old " click" swing trainer to train for more speed and proper release.

Any chance of a very slow motion of your swing. Frontal and down the line ??

Im reading “the positive impact of golf”. This book has made me realize to enjoy the game and I’ve never been so relaxed on the course. Thank you for all the videos 😊

Great advice Phil. You’ve gotta lose control to gain control. Had a conversation with my playing partner today after he miss-hit his driver on a a par 5. He couldn’t get to the green so he tried to lay up to a number. He made the most smooth a free swing and hit it 15 yards longer than expected. The rest of the day we told each other, hit your layup shot, on every shot. It was a great ball striking day for both of us,

Cracking video as always Phil

I totally agree with everything you said. The only thing that I wonder about. The swing as you described it will square up the club face without a doubt. However, the thing I have the biggest problem with is inconsistent strike quality. Sometimes I hit thin shots, sometimes I hit fat shots, sometimes I hit beautiful compressed shots. How does the relaxed swing help with a consistent point of impact?

Hi Phil, I’ve noticed that recently I’ve become ‘left hand dominant’ using ES which I think is causing my topped shots, shanks and duffs. I think I need to weaken my grip... any views on this? Whatever- I’m sticking with the ES! Thanks.

I just love your swing! On your back swing, do you pull it back at a particular angle?

Great video lesson for sure. I discovered this a while back when I was casually hitting shots out of trouble and actually discovering the feeling the inertia and was amazed at the difference it made for targeting shots and overall game improvement too -- even in the short grass. It seems that I spend far more time now trying to prevent any and all forms of tension/rigidity in my swing routine and (instead) pay much more attention to simply allowing the swing to more freely happen, (as you are saying), which is also allowing me way bullet-straight trajectories, more gratification, and much better scoring.

Excellent advise Phil on how to naturally swing a golf club. I have been playing this game for almost 70 years and I learned a long time ago it is better not to try and manipulate the golf club. The manufacturers have designed these clubs in such as way that they will square up without any outside manipulation. A light grip, loose wrists, and supple arms is all you need for these golf clubs to work for you. Well Done Phil! I like the way you present your topics. I have "The Easiest Swing" downloaded onto my Kindle. A great reference guide!

Thanks Phillip. Such a simple concept.

We hope you enjoyed this video and take the concepts straight to the course. Start finding more fairways and hit more greens without the effort. Remember to go to easiestswing.com to find out more about the Easiest Swing philosophy ⛳

A guy in my league watched my swing and said I was a wigwam and a teepee. What? He paused and then said, "You're too tense!" lol

Nice lesson! Thanks, gents!

Awesome. But how about with an iron? Your weight needs to be more forward at impact so the club shallows out in front of the ball.

What's the back ground music?

Just ordered your book!!!

"Finish the swing" is a one of the best thoughts I have used in a round that ended in a good score. My control over the ball flight has really improved, without thinking about it! . Thanks Philip.

I’ve gradually been cherry picking various parts of easiest swing. The idea of total relaxation has completely changed my game. It’s easy to become fixated on a particular technical move, believing that will bring great golf. I feel us amateurs need to stop chasing (and being sold) tour pro type swings. These guys are unicorns, the average person has zero chance of copying it.

I’ll try it

I love the concept of easiest swing but I now hook all my shots. The fix is to delay the release…not the easiest!
